There is multiple models of that device. What is your device USB ID?
What it outputs to the system log when stick is plugged? Use dmesg
command to see and copy paste output.

Your device supports DVB-C, DVB-T and analog? You tested only DVB-T?

I just tested quite many em28xx based sticks with stock 3.6.6 and all
seems to work just fine. All em28xx devices I have here are digital
only, which makes me wonder if it has something to do with hybrid
devices (digital + analog)...
